Many pharmacists have found that oral dosage forms with tuna or sardine work well for cats, while many dogs prefer beef, liver, and chicken flavors. Sweet, fruity flavors often work best for birds, and vegetable bases or berry are best for rabbits.
One of the challenges of veterinary compounding is finding a dosage form appropriate for each individual animal. Cats can pose a particular challenge for administration of medicines, as most cat owners will agree because they do not like to swallow capsules. Sometimes oral dosage forms aren’t an acceptable option. Some medications for cats can be incorporated into transdermal gels that are applied to the inside flap of the ear, minimizing the stress for both owner and pet.
Examples of commonly compounded preparations include:

My dog had been having trouble with allergies and scratching his coat, resulting in hair loss. We started him on 1.0mg LDN and in three-week’s time, his hair grew back and helped alleviate his scratching and discomfort.
